Glen Powell’s Hair: Short Hairstyle With Swept Back Fringe
Glen Powell’s hair – a cropped, textured cut with that subtly swept back fringe proves that sometimes, the simplest, most classic hairstyle packs the most charisma.
Why We Love It:
Glen Powell’s hair has had a bit of a glow-up, colour-wise. The Running Man star’s usual honey blonde barnet has been dyed a rich, warm, chocolate tone.
This new colour adds more depth and sophistication to his style and haircut. Dare MFH say that it gives off even more serious Leading Man Energy?
The warmth of that chocolate tone enhances Glen’s natural complexion and brings out the brightness in his eyes, proving that colour really can transform a familiar style (because he does tend to stick to the same haircut playbook).
If you’re thinking of doing the same, consider your undertones: cooler skin suits ashier browns, while warmer complexions can rock chestnut or golden hues.
As for Glen’s classic, go-to cut – it works best on straight or slightly wavy medium-to-thick hair. It’s also relatively low-maintenance.
Pair it with Glen’s glossy new hair colour and signature confidence, and you’ve got a classically cool vibe that’ll outlast any more daring hair trends.
What To Ask Your Barber:
- Request a short scissor cut with the fringe left area left a little longer – approximately 1.5-2 inches,
- Keep the sides and back softly tapered, not faded – it should look clean, not military.
- Ask for layering at the fringe to make it less heavy and easier to style and texture through the top for movement.
- Ask your stylist to finish with a natural neckline for that relaxed, polished yet relaxed finish.
- If you’re going darker like Glen, chat about semi-permanent or demi-permanent colour options.
- These fade gradually over about six weeks, avoiding that harsh “root regrowth” line you get with permanent dye.
- Make sure the tone you choose complements your skin undertone and eyebrow colour. Go too dark, and your brows can suddenly look mismatched.
- If you’re making a big jump from blonde to brunette, you might want to tint your brows a shade deeper for balance.
Get The Look
- Glen Powell’s hair looks best when it’s not over done.
- To keep that warm chocolate colour fresh, use a colour-safe shampoo and conditioner and limit heat styling.
- After washing, towel-dry until slightly damp.
- Apply a light volumising mousse first, then spritz a texture spray or sea salt spray for root lift.
- Blow-dry with your fingers or a vent brush, sweeping the front back and slightly off-centre.
- Once dry, use a matte paste or soft styling cream, rubbing it between palms and running it through for texture and shape.
- Finish with a mist of light hairspray to lock in that look.
